HELP! Recover camera photos after SD card crash?

[Ryan Morgan]

Hello, I have encountered an unpleasant event. My 64gb sd stick from my camera has failed and all my photos are gone. The card is no longer readable on the camera. When I connect the card to the PC it shows up as empty and asks for formatting.

After a bit of googling, I realised that you need special software to recover photos. I even tried a few, but did not achieve the desired result ......


Does anyone know how to help me?

If you have already tried these to little benefit, the only other thing I can think of is trying the card with a different operating system. If you have Windows then try using a laptop with Linux or Mac OSX.

Not had this issue for some time as I have learnt from past experiences & no longer buy extra cheap cards. Not saying you have but this is far more common with value brands. I prefer to buy SanDisk, PNY or Samsung card & USB thumb drives.

As suggested above by @donnie_arko a system with Linux may be able to pick up what windows cannot.
A PC repair shop should be able to help, if you do not know anyone who uses Linux.

Is always worth a try. I have used it to recover lost images from HDD and memory cards in the past.

Thank you) One of the videos helped me.


Hetman Partition Recovery was able to recover 90% of the data from the flash drive. This is probably the best result so far. Overall, I'm satisfied because I managed to recover most of the data for little money.Thank you all for your help)
